Abstract:
A connector includes a first receiver that defines an implant cavity and includes a mating surface. A second receiver attachable with the first receiver via a flexible element, the second receiver defines an implant cavity and includes a mating surface engageable with the mating surface of the first receiver to fix relative orientation of the receivers. A biasing element is disposed adjacent the mating surfaces to space the mating surfaces such that the first receiver is movable relative to the second receiver in operation of the connector. Systems, surgical instruments, implants, spinal constructs and methods are disclosed.
